Pros

Avalara has crafted a logical and well-planned tax calculation solution that simplifies complex tax scenarios like surcharges and nested taxes in the telecommunications industry, which are unfamiliar to many traditional CPAs and accountants.

Cons

Avalara's implementations and customer support have consistently fallen short. Every time I've worked with Avalara, my team and I have ended up doing the majority of the work to implement, test, and go live. This has been an ongoing issue across multiple products we use. It's crucial that Avalara addresses this promptly.

Pros

When it operates correctly for certain states, it's a pleasant experience.

Cons

It's frustrating not being able to speak to someone who truly understands how the software operates. Currently, I'm navigating through the system somewhat blindly, as the customer support line seems ill-prepared to handle technical queries. Their lack of knowledge about the system sometimes requires me to explain its functions to them.

Pros

Seems like a solid product (though primarily geared towards the US), offering a variety of services under one roof.

Cons

My experience with Avalara's sales representatives left much to be desired. They seemed more focused on making the sale rather than offering trustworthy advice. During the implementation process, we needed more guidance and would have appreciated personalized assistance, even if it meant paying for it. Clear communication about international system capabilities, especially for a Canadian corporation like ours, was lacking. Compatibility issues with Avalara also slowed down our system significantly, despite raising the concern with their tech team.
